For the VSN pre-challenge, we were asked to make up a holiday. Long story short....I sold my wedding dress on Ebay for $400. Then I recieved a money order for $3,000 and the "buyer" asked me to send the rest of the money that I owed, $2600, back via Western Union. I called the cops and the officer that came to my house said......SCAMMER(yeah...duh...!!!) So, my holiday is...
Ebay Scammers Day October 28 Annually

Ebay can be a great place but you have to be careful. Someone stole my credit card information from there in a scam too. Good for you for making such a great card. You should post if for sale on Ebay, lol. I love it, great card, I love your dresses on it.
